ELLIOTT President, Board of Education The students of Cortland High School pay tribute to Mr. Elliott whose loyal service on the Board of Education has proven his interest in creating a high order of excellence for his com- munity. 1-le has been prominently connected with our school since Iuly 1923, When he attended his first meeting as a member of the Board. 1-le was honored with the office of Vice President two years later and with the office of President by unanimous opinion on February 21, 1938. Mr. Elliott has always been devoted to the best interest of the boys and girls and, by his activity, has made possible the most progressive projects. The kindly spirit and gallant manner of this gentleman have won for him the admir- ation of the faculty and the student body. l 11081, ffm l N R MISS ANNIE E. LUKER Dean of the Tenth Year li One of the foremost personalities to influence our high school career is our Sophomore Dean, Miss Luker. lt is with the deepest esteem for her constant loyalty and her helpfulness that We honor her with a conspicuous place in this annual. A philosophy Which We all feel characteristic of her unselfish nature is 'lMake you the world a bit more beautiful and better because you have been in it. The members of this Senior Class, like so many Who have gone out before, into the harder school of life, will often recall, in years to come, a Voice which urged them not to be naughty boys. l pug? jfvcl flow ? , 6630 Qqomlwisfaggf awww aww FAC ULTV JTLDE T GRADIMTES NI C0 UMQL wwasacmssmew Acuwin, ES semis C RTQQNS A ADVEQTLSLMG JW!! Rllfcciaff BCDARD of EDUCATICDN .it The members of the Board of Education have proven that they are devoted to the progress of the Youth of Cortland. We, the pupils, extend our thanks and appreciation for the new building sponsored by them to provide more adequate facilities for our safety and our comfort. Much sacrifice of time and effort has been required to make these plans possible. We believe each member of this organization will increasingly realize the merit of his accomplishment in the advancement of a school system of which all Cortland can be proud. Mrs. l. L.

Stilwell I fmgr ,rfsirn l Wgwwxgxisf .Xi ' Mr. lohn H. Burke, A. M. Principal To our principal, Mr. Burke, who is so closely connected with Cortland High School and all that it means, we express our thanks and appre- ciation. His real interest in us which has led him to grant us a share in our school govern- ment and other school affairs, marks him as a true friend. We recognize his ability in keeping things running so smoothly in this transitional period of building our new schoolffa period when a level head is most needed. We will always remember his guiet, unassuming thoughtful- ness and vast good humor which have earned our respect. Mr. Erwin G. Simmons, A. M. Superintendent Mr. Simmons came to us as a prominent edu- cator from Northern New York in the middle of the school year of l937-38. ln this short period he has shown his vision and far-sightedness in determining the present and future needs of our school system. Such skill proves his ability as an ardent leader. His wit and rare sense of humor on many occasions have characterized our Superinten- dent as a favorite speaker. Because of his willingness to participate in the affairs of the community, the people of Cort- land appreciate his good fellowship and feel that they have gained a friend in this public- spirited citizen.

Hollister The General Organization, which is the new activity budget program of the school, was formerly too large a group to operate effectively as a legislative body. Therefore, the responsi- bility of shaping the extra-curricular program of the school was delegated to the Student Council. The Council is made up of a chairman from each home room, the president and vice presi- dent of each class, and the president of the student body elected by the Senior High School, who conducts the meetings. Meetings are held once a Week. When a policy is formulated, the home room chairmen communicate the decisions to the home rooms. The Council is not student self-government but student participation under faculty guid- ance. I page twflvf Ax ! ' ' Bzzicciolwi X FLOYD ALLEN ADAMS, lR.

Among the first of the year's surprises was the more for your money General Organiz- ation plan proposed by Mr. Tarr, and started on September 15 with the help of many able students. The plan developed rapidly, result- ing in an enrollment of 600 members. The first home room to reach the 100 per cent goal was senior home room 102A, under the manage- ment of Susan Place as home room chairman. Under this economical plan the General Organ- ization was able to produce more enthusiasm and school spirit toward high school activities. The activities of the year were off with a bang when we found ourselves with a practically un- defeated football team coached by the one and only Ross O. Shafer. Heading the grid stars on to victory was 'Power House Osadchey, backed by the- excellent blocking of his teammates. Making possible such a successful season be- sides the star, were, Mush , Hugo Fleming, Biog Montello, Tommy Hamilton, HBobby Potter, the pivot man, l'1erry Reynolds, Banjo Bertini, Midnight Canale, Nick Fiske, Pelcher , Chet Adessa, and the manager, 'lDick Wilkins. Others Who did their part were the bench warmers and the water boy. To start the season the team defeated Oneida 19 to 0, then, after a series of victories, on No- vember 4 Cortland lost to Norwich with a score of 19 to 13, defeated in the last minute of play. Thus, ended the football season, the best in many years. Early in the year Superintendent Simmons confirmed the rumors concerning the erection of an addition to our present high school build- ing. Of course, the whole school was astir at the prospects and even more thrilled when, on September 29, the city approved the recom- mendation of the Board of Education by a vote of 10 to 1. lnterest ran high in choosing members for a Student Council, a type of organization new this year. Each home room held a separate election for its representative. For president, candidates were set up by petitions. Each spoke before the assembly presenting his policies, and each re- ceived vigorous support from his followers. After the school had been divided into wards and the whole plan based on a regular city election, the students voted, giving the presi- dency to Robert Mack, with Robert Crisara a close second. The whole proved a crisis in campaigning spirit. Of importance during the 1938-39 term was a series of interesting assembly programs the price of which had been included in member- ship to the General Organization. These brought us lecturers of note, as well as outstand- ing artists and musicians. According to the Social Calendar the Tri-Y Hlail-Bird Hop held at the Y. W. C. A. on No- vember 25 proved to be a great success. Spiegle Willcox's orchestra furnished the music and a good share of high school students, together with many of the vacationing Alumni, were there. On October 28 came the Hi-Y dance which, although it furnished plenty of fun, left the club somewhat financially embarassed. To top the social season the General Organ- ization planned a school dance which was par- ticularly popular since admission was free to all G. O. members, for four hours of fun and danc- ing. Miss Chaloux and her troop of actors deserve a great deal of credit and praise for the excellent dramatic productions which have furnished real entertainment for all. As usual the Purple Pennant has come out with flying colors. The first copy was issued on October 7 under the careful supervision of Miss Hamelin and Miss Haug. The gossip and news have been written by many expert literary inclined students and have made the paper a success. This, also, was included in the price of General Organization membership. Likewise the Co-Hi-An drive started on De- cember 5. An unusual number of students, most of them Seniors, signed up for work on the annual. This large staff has been working throughout the year to make the 1939 1'Co-Hi-An outstanding, by assembling all kinds of new material and working out many new features. Our thanks go to Miss Tallant who has made this possible. On lanuary 30, half day sessions began, to allow for the new building program which is now in progress. Already the old part of the school, the scene of a host of memories for many students, has almost ceased to be. Up to the date of writing we rate but one basketball victory, However, the victorious spirit of a triumphant football season has carried through and has proved itself no less valiant in meeting defeats. As their last year draws to a close, the Seniors bid farewell to their Alma Mater and march on, enriched by many memories, to new growth on the roads which lie ahead. I page thirty 1 crsVfE'5 As the Tune, 1939, semester finally becomes a chapter in history, the Tunior Class has upheld its usual high standards under the guiding hand of Miss Lilla Murray. With the aid of Leo Canale, Hugh Fleming, Alex Qsadchey, and the aspirations of the lunior Class as a Whole, the football team of Cortland High School came through the season with flying colors. Not only the football team profited by the aid of the luniors, but the Basketball team as Well, for such athletes as Kenneth Buggs, Charles Cerio, Yale Hughes, Alex Osadchey, Hugh Fleming, and lohn Polanko con- tributed their unceasing support. The luniors have contributed much to the athletic standing of the school, and, in addition, many luniors have gained parts in the dramatic productions and have revealed remarkable talent in the field of acting. The High School orchestra and band have once more profited by the addition of the talents of the Tunior Class to their musical scope. It is with great promise and high expectation that the class of l94O looks forward to the coming year. MISS LILLA L. MURRAY Dean of Eleventh Year CLASS OFFICERS President ...... ,....

Of this number, 125 are members of the General Organization, while the class is lOO per cent in its pay- ment for Assembly programs. Following the custom of previous Sophomore classes, the present class sent a Christmas offering to the Near East Foundation. This class has met all financial obligations with promptness and generosity. Sophomores are active in all athletic sports of the school, they are, also, represented in Band, Orches- tra, Chorus and Cflee Club, Dramatics, on the Purple Pennant staff, the Co-l-li-An staff, the Student Council, and the Sportsmanship Brotherhood. Two outstanding traits of character, co-operation and obedience to all authority, are emphasized in school life, and the attitude of the present class towards these two responsibilities has been good. .zsaurfwim111.1-4,155-mam-wzrvfr'-w.:xw','.-sassirwms-s-f'.s.f M 'f svfrswws-'r.wf - '4-w.ragrxwff- as f-4,',--:J.1rws-'iw ,. . f.:'..-nav-airnsx '- . .uxmwz rwsi tw-:vg.W.,. +-fwrf,,-ws-:m..,-14-1 THE IUNICDR The lunior High School began the school year with an en- rollment of 643 pupils, seventh year 179, eighth year 198, and the ninth year 266. At an assembly early in September nomina- tions were made for officers of the lunior High School. The fine speeches made by the candidates at this assembly made it one of the outstanding programs of the year. According to custom, the president and treasurer must be ninth year students while the vice president is from the eighth year and the secretary comes from the seventh year. The result of the election showed the following officers for this year: Paul Corsi, President, Patricia RUSSELL W- BOWER Mott, Vice President, loseph Calabro, Secretary, and Wilma Difefltof Of lu1'1i0f High 5011001 Sears, Treasurer. These officers have served faithfully and well. The assemblies are presided over by the President. All of them are opened with the Lord's Prayer and the salute to the flag. The programs have been of particular interest to all students. Because of the double session schedule in effect during the second term, assemblies have been limited to the ones for which the students have paid. The students of the l unior High responded very well to the General Organization which was started this year. There were over 200 members of the organization from the Tunior High. This large number speaks well for the continued success of the General Organization.

A new type of club added to the usual number this year specialized in soap carving. Two of these clubs were organized. They had a very interesting exhibit at the lanuary meeting of the Parent Teachers' Association. At the same meeting the eighth year Dramatic Club produced four one act plays, the lunior High Choir sang several numbers, and selections were played by the lunior High Orchestra. The athletic program this year gave an opportunity to many students for participation in sports. There was a basketball league composed of seventh and eighth year home room teams.

The characters were well portrayed. The business man, Malcolm Alama, lay in bed throughout the Jlay in spite ot his wite, Marilyn loiner, his daughter, Shirley Williams, and the bank's vice-president, Charles lark. A psychologist, Richard Wilkins tried to analyze him, while the cook, Norma Hotaling, screamed for bed in the kitchen. ln the uproar, the butler, Robert Sherry, double-crossed everyone and got into the bed. UWARII The play 'lWar , by Thomas Seller was presented as one ot the Dramatic Club's three one-act plays on Slovember l8. lt was staged by the request ot the Cortland Normal Dramatic Club at the Cortland Normal School, lanuary l2, and at the Congregational Church by the Parent-Teachers' Association, on February l5. The play is an amusing satire on home life, dealing with two neighboring families who present their ideas ot War. How they maintain their views is an actual problem and provides an interesting climax. COMMAND PERFORMANCE With the setting ot a mysterious room in the Maharaiah's palace, the Dramatic Club presented l'Command 'ertormancef' A large curtain hand-blocked by the Stagecratt Club, covered the back ot the stage, while all lamps lighted the stage and the mats on which the actors sat. . The Maharaiah, Arthur Howard, allowed :iis innocent guests to discuss which one should die to avenge his son's death. The doctor, Charles Brown, the mother, Virginia Gantertg the authoress, Beverly Totman, the artist, Sidney Bronstein, and the scientist, lames Finnessyp each gave his work as a reason tor living. The singer, Betty Colegrove, ottered to die, but the careless American, lohn Keator, insisted on taking her place when he realized her love tor the scientist. THE MINSTBEL SHOW The strains ot l've Got a Pockettull ot Dreams played by interlocutor Malcolm Alama's orchestra opened .he tirst minstrel show given by the Dramatic Club in many years.

' I mira-xcllfz f mini? ffl A Mr. L. Ernest Tarr Cn Qctober 14, 1938, the students ot Cortland High School lost one ot their most popular faculty members, when Mr. L. Ernest Tarr lett to assume his new duties as principal ot Dryden-Freeville Central School. Mr. Tarr had taken an active interest in all school attairs. As Student Finance Director, he was the originator ot the very successful General Qrgan- ization plan. To the boys and girls of Cortland High he symbolized school spirit ln recognition ot their respect and admiration tor him, a testimonial tarewell Was held. The High School Band escorted Mr. Tarr from his home to the school where he was presented with a gitt clock, and was established as an honorary member ot the 1938-39 lootball team. The students regret their 1oss ot this friend, even as they extend to him their wishes that good fortune will continue to tollow him. l l 2' l- lT lH4 QQ KA A Q, 'X fo 'O 48' U Q,-O if Q-9 PQ-N?

Q6 The pigskin season of l938 whirled into shape with fifty-two prospects for the team, a number surpassing that of any other season. Prof. Shafer was enthused with such a start. After a few weeks of conditioning and fundamental football, Coach Shafer picked out a first string and scrimmaged them against a stubborn defensive second team. This powerful defensive machine of the second stringers brought out many weaknesses of the varsity. Because of this, a different system of practice was devised, which put the boys through further and extensive training. Prof. Shafer and assistant Coach Garner took the backfield out for indi- vidual practice on plays, while Line Coach Crotty, capably gave the line work outs. When the opening game of the season arrived, the fans saw a powerful defensive machine and a surging offensive outfit of C. H. S. take to the field for victory. AGL- ff W.. Nl IJ .. Qfsllf ff IV5 llfilti R. 1 SEPTEMBER 24, 1938 Oneida-O Cortland-19 This opening game proved that the Purple and White boys were going places with their hard charging offense and their stub- born defensive tactics. Osadchey showed his driving and passing ability for C. H. S. The substitutes, UBuck Qsadchey and Calkins, did fine Work. OCTOBER 1, 1938 . Sayre-13 Cortland-17 This game was a great test for the Shaferites, but because of hard defensive charging by Montello, Canale, and Hamilton, along with 1-Xdessa's fine step and a halt style, the team marched to victory. LL or-sf, OCTOBER 8, 1938 Fulton-20 Cortland-31 Again our C. H. S. boys marched to victory with hard blocking and smashing tackles. lohnny Pelli- ciotti showed his fine running back of punts, with his elusive body weaving itself for long gains. Fiske's and Potter's fine blocking, along with never failing Osadchey's scoring, was brilliant, while Bart Fiske with the other substitutes, aided the C. H. S. team to victory. OCTOBER 14, 1938 Geneva-7 Cortland-21 Under the lights, the Purple and White cohorts swung their flanks into action with Reynolds and Ber- tini, along with the whole line, doing fine blocking and tackling for victory. OCTOBER 22, 1938 Sayre-2 Cortland-29 At this game we saw a revengeful Sayre team com- ing back to win, but with the bone-crushing tackles and fine blocking by the Purple and White, the Sayre team fell in defeat. This victory and others were possible through fine guarterbacking by Potter, who called plays for the Shaferites. Raymond Lyons did fine work at guard. OCTOBER 28, 1938 Onondaga Valley-O Cort1andw39 This game shows that the boys were in their prime with Floy-Floy Fiske carrying the ball for long gains. The fans witnessed his excellent blocking and tackling, and agreed that they were a great asset to the team. NOVEMBER 4, 1938 Norwich-19 Cort1ande4 Although the Shaferites outplayed the Norwich team, the ending turned out to be like the Syracuse, Cornell upset. ln this game, our ends, Moiseichik and Fleming, as in all other games, were brilliant at tackling and pass receiving. We, the fans and pupils of C. H. S., are truly proud of our '38 team. Junior Varsity The lunior Varsity outfit of this year under Coach Garner, is the team to which all students of C. H. S. are looking forward for varsity material in September. ludging from the fine victories which these boys have won during this season, the coaching staff pre- dicts a splendid record for next year's varsity team.

The qualities ot our team were best displayed in the game with Johnson City. ln accordance with the expert team work shown, Cortland High School marched on to victory with a score of 44 to 35. Coach Shater and the team appreciate the loyalty and tine sportsmanship ot the students in backing their team even though they were, at times, on the wrong end ot the score. Because ot such spirit in the tace ot defeat, the boys have continued to put a great deal ot ettort and concentration into their practice and have shown a steady improvement. The team loses this year tive ot its veteran basket- ball players: Hugh Fleming, Charles Cerio, Lloyd Smith, lohn Moiseichik and lack Osadchey.
